PLEASE GUYS HELP ME OUT ON THIS ONE. CONGRATS TO ALL THE STUDENTS WHO WERE ACCEPTED INTO NURSING SCHOOL. :clphnds:

I can't speak for the RN program, but I got my CNA from Truman and I thought the program was HORRIBLE. My teacher was. . .let's just say really outdated in her education, old fashioned. . .just awful. That said, it was really easy on account of this, ha ha.

I have a friend who got her RN from Daley, she had no complaints. My "babydaddy" (lol) is getting his paramedic from Malcolm X.

I don't live in Chicago anymore, BTW, so I may be a tiny bit outdated on things. Wish I were still there.

I will attend the the evening nursing program at Truman this fall. I think it's a good idea to attend both orientations. Ask nursing students at Daley College and Truman for their opinions of the program. Then you need to consider if it a big hassle for very long commute to classes and clinical. From what I heard, if you denied your seat at Truman, you cannot reapply the next following year. Check out Truman new policy state on their website.

I was accepted into both Truman and Daley as well. I am going to Truman, because it was my first choice and it has an excellent reputation. All I know of Daley is that it is accredited, and thats why I applied. I know that Truman has had a 100 percent pass rate on the NCLEX for the last two years, and has some very good teachers as I have heard nothing but positive feedback. I think you should go to both orientations and decide which is better for you, ask about the pass rate at Daley at the orientation.

I was accepted to Truman and MalcolmX. I already attended MalcolmX, but I don't think I will go there, though the location is more convenient. I will attend Truman's night classes.

I am happy its's over and now I can really start my journey on preparing for NCLEXClasss of 2011 ! Graduate Nurse, RN Yaayyy If you ask me "All City Colleges of Chicago are screwed" lbvs
